Fanfic and meta links (Dr. Who, Alias, Star Wars)
Found a delightful Dr. Who story, gen, set post-Boom Town as Rose deals with what happened between Mickey and herself. Terrific Rose-Jack interaction, ditto for Jack-Doctor. Everyone is written very well here, but Jack especially stands out: "Times Like These".

One of the great things about Alias is that the show offers several interesting middle-aged women. Starting with SpyMommy, of course, but someone I love as much as the fascinating Irina is her quieter counterpart, Arvin Sloane's wife Emily. So I was glad to see a new Emily story and got inspired to answer this week's alias500 challenge with Emily myself:
"Marriage"
Set in late season 1, but with a spoiler for the season 4 episode "In Dreams".

It's a question that comes up every now and then: why does Padmé love Anakin? My own take on it is pretty much similar to thalia_seawood's, which is why I was glad to read her post here.
